LSD Dream Emulator sounds like a fun game. I can't believe the thread for that game went for so long without an un-ironic "not related to chiptune" comment. Maybe there is room on this board for non-chiptune-related General Discussion after all?

I wasn't going to check this out but somebody said "sweet melodies" and that is my trigger phrase

There is a stigma about the word "rave" and any reference to Mario "Mario at a rave" is often used in a deprecating way, and so the fact that you used "rave" in a clever Mario referencing way probably caused a knee-jerk reaction. Some people feel really strongly about distancing chipmusic from the "mario at a rave" association.

...would be a much better title for some people,

If you do all the tutorials that are available out there, then eventually you'll have gone over lsdj "as a whole". With any type of music, you pick up bits and pieces here and there. Nobody, no single resource is ever going to give the WHOLE picture of anything. There will always be something that is missed that you'll have to discover through alternate means. Everybody has to go through that process. There are no shortcuts.

You should, instead of trying to learn lsdj specifically, study up on sound design principles in general, and then apply that to LSDJ, so instead of trying to figure out how to come up with a good sound, you'll be trying to figure out how to make the good sound that you've already come up with in your head on LSDJ.

That way you are still learning things that will be beneficial to your usage of LSDJ, but you won't have the frustration of being totally lost in a see of numbers and letters.

Or try something new like HivelyTracker, Klystracker, Deflemask, OpenMPT, Renoise, Sound Club, Muse score, FLStudio, 1Tracker, Protracker, whatever. I highly recommend Beepola if you just want to make music without having to fiddle around with sound design and stuff.  ^_^

My computer was having issues with flash, that's all. It's fixed now, though.
Edit: and yeah! It sounds as cool as I imagined. Kind of reminds me a little of One Must Fall 2097.

Can't access the video at this time, but judging by the commenting this looks like it'll be right up my alley. I'm so excited for this to release

Yeah, man. Bassist I know tunes by ear because he has perfect pitch, but his perfection is a bit flawed. He has trouble finding the keys of songs because of this, lol. Whenever I have to play his bass I whip out my tuner and have at it.

But despite that it really doesn't sound so bad as long as he's not playing through his backup guitar amp, since that doesn't bass as well as his bass amp does.

Yeah, you are right. There's no need for the thread to take that tone, though, since live chipmusic performance has nothing to do with me. Sorry, it's been a while since I read the last 8 pages. I shouldn't have bumped this back up. I was just a bit shocked when I read/heard some comments from people who looked down on all lsdj performance as just being glorified ipod playback. I should have just re-read through the thread and refreshed myself instead of asking a silly question.
